Can't Sleep?

I have had difficulty sleeping in one way or another since I was a child. Not only do I have insomnia but I have also been told that I stop breathing briefly while sleeping, this is called sleep apnea. Contrary to popular belief, sleep apnea does not only affect the over weight, although most of those who suffer from the ailment are over weight.

I have not yet received the results of the study, but I may have to wear a CPAP machine while I sleep, alternatively there is surgery and I just recently read about a pillar procedure where they sew small pillars into the soft palate. Neither option sounds like much fun to me.

I had not slept through a night in years. Honestly, I don't even remember sleeping through an entire night in my life. I started using light therapy back in October and now I sleep like a rock. A deep restful sleep with energy during the day. I would rather give up my car than my light box.Glad you are getting treatment because not sleeping can be pure hell.

Thanks Barbara, I did some research and found that light boxes are used for Seasonal Affective Dissorder (SAD). It makes sense that people that are not geting enough natural light would bennifit from them, but I think my problem is different.
